Dr. William Kerr

Dr. William Kerr received a Bachelor of Science in Biology Degree from the University of Toronto in 1983 and Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from the University of Western Ontario in 1987.

Upon completion of his dental degree, Dr. Kerr joined his father, Dr. John Kerr and continued to practice with his father until 1993 when Dr. John Kerr retired. In 1990, the two were joined by Dr. Michael Cusato (Dr. Kerr’s brother-in-law). Drs. William Kerr and Michael Cusato continue to work as partners and have done so since 1997. The practice of Dentistry in the Highlands allows Dr. Kerr to unite two of his favorite things - dentistry and his love of the Minden area.

Dr. Kerr enjoys all aspects of dentistry and the relationships he has built with the many families he has had the privilege of treating over the years.

Dr. Kerr is a strong believer in volunteerism and travels to El Porvenir Honduras annually to provide dental care to school children. He is the founder and President of Volunteer Dental Outreach for Haliburton County www.dental-outreach.com - a charity which provides free dental care to low income residents of Haliburton County. Dr. Kerr volunteers at the VDO at least twice a month.

Dr. Kerr and his wife Lisa have four wonderful grown children who went through Archie Stouffer E.S. and Haliburton Highlands Secondary School. The Kerr’s moved to Minden in 1998. With three sons in hockey Dr. Kerr was a regular around the hockey arena when his boys were young and attended all of Loretta’s many dance recitals. Steve Kerr has recently opened a practice in Minden as a Denturist. Ryan Kerr is now practicing law in Hamilton. J.J. and Loretta are both attending University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry and hope to join Dentistry in the Highlands in the near future. Dr. Kerr is both a talented skier and golfer hopes that when the next generation of Kerr dentists join the practice he will have a little time to do both.
